Re: [platform-vcm-dev] team and vcm compatibility?

I would like to follow up a few points particularly on the UI presented by
VCM 2.0.

In the VCM 1.0 enviroinment, provided that you could support the Team
Streams model, you could
effectively reuse the common menus/dialogs and implement the functionality
required by the Interfaces in your
Adapter/Plugin

In VCM 2.0 the statement  that a mechanism of providing a base Team menu set
that will
be accessible from current and future plugins is made.

What is the base menu set.    What functionality is exposed.  Is this
required or can it be replaced completely by repository specific
menus/dialogs

What is the mechanism for extending standard dialogs.   Is this by
replacement or extension.   For example adding a revision selector to
check-out. The  ITeamProvider Checkout has no concept of revisions.

Will the situation where there are two or more providers associated with
projects in a workspace
each introducing their own menus/dialogs be covered.   Can these by
qualified by the Team provider so that
menus for a project under CVS are not shown for a project under PVCS
control.
